You can't have been near a Faculty Council that decides these things.

I have a bachelor of arts degree in Chemistry. (And an MS in Chemistry.)

The difference between the BA and BS degrees, in a large part, is in the
additional amount of liberal arts coursework required for the BA.

When I was an undergrad, my Uni didn't do Bachelors of Science. So I'm a BA
"majored in Chemistry" as I put it.

And my first attempt at a Masters was a Master of Science in History. (I
eventually got a Master of Science in Medical Technology.)

And I think, even now, you can't get a Science degree at Oxford University.

Cheers,
Wol

Some modern uUnis think it is trendy, and some ancient ones just have not caught
up with the times. In my case it was a very new uni being trendy. They did offer
to change it for a BSc many years later but I could not be bothered.
